| case fatality rate |
The proportion of people who will die of a certain disease out of those who contract it. A time frame is referenced in the case fatality rate (example: case fatality rate for measles is often measured as those who die within 4-6 weeks after the rash appears). This measure also can be applied to chronic conditions; in reference to chronic disease the converse of the case fatality rate, survival rate, is calculated (see Survival Rate).
